On today’s edition of the FreedomCast, Charles Cooke joins me to discuss the numbers game that the Obama administration is playing with ObamaCare enrollment, how expanding Medicaid may sound compassionate but has not proven to enhance health or longevity for its recipients, and

This weekend, environmentalists in Portland and Vancouver (WA) staged several protests against fossil fuel use in an attempt to raise awareness of the evil of petroleum products. As I've reported, one of their big issues is to try to turn the transportation of coal via rail into the Spotted Owl of this century.
